calling jodie

This outfit screams 70's love. On my day off I visited the local thrift store and made out like a bandit. I fell in love with this gorgeous felt hat, especially the flower detail. The clogs are basically the score of a lifetime - why anyone would NOT want them in their wardrobe is beyond me...... needless to say, I'm more than thrilled to be able to give them a home in MY closet!

I realized after the shoot that this outfit bears a striking resemblance to that worn by Jodie Foster's character in Taxi Driver (see below for the comparison). I didn't really have her in mind when I styled the look but perhaps it emerged subconsciously. Either way, I am happy with the end result.

This is BY FAR my most fave outfit I've seen on you YET! It's fan-tastic. I'm a HUGE vintage fanatic...so that's prob why I love this so much! Great colors too...totally channeling Fall.And I really love how you were inspired by the old photo of Jodie Foster (She had great style, didn't she?)Loves it!
